Picard, a positronic scientist, a thief, an EMH, a teenage Romulan, a mercenary, a socially challenged 20something and a former intelligence agent. It sounds a little too Star Trek: Renegades for my liking, but we'll see.

The positronic scientist fascinates me the most. Will this be some kind of "search for Data"?]]>142The Alpha Quadrant Powers in 2399Thu, 21 Mar 2019 01:16:47 +0000https://www.trekbbs.com/threads/the-alpha-quadrant-powers-in-2399.298281/

I think the Breen are still part of the Dominion. How relevant that is the Picard Series, probably not very.

The Klingons are probably still allies to the Federation. Maybe not as close as when Martok was in power but still on good terms. If only because they want this series to be different from Discovery.

But there's one other bit of game changing future knowledge Spock brings from 2387 in that movie: Transwarp beaming. First used to beam from a stationary start on Vulcan into the Enterprise at warp, then later used to beam 140 light-years from Earth to Kronos. It's unsafe (Scotty nearly died) but it's a game changer on-par with Discovery's Spore Drive.

Honestly the new season has been a joy to watch so far. It feels much more like Star Trek. The producers seem to have taken on board constructive criticism some of the more controversial things in the first season. Characters are more endearing, and have names now. On the production-design-side, they gave the Klingons hair. There is even a Klingon D7 Battlecruiser in one of the trailers. But on the deeper side, the show feels more...

Personally I'm hoping they go back to the TSFS - Ent design, just to keep it consistent with TNG and it's movies. The same applies to every familiar alien species we see.
I think Discovery can get away with changing the designs since it's kind of off by itself in a new era, but since the Picard show will be a sequel to TNG and Nemesis,...
